I'm a newbie with goth stuff so idk what to say about that.

late post thursday: the buzzcocks-everybody's happy nowadays




sorry got to make this speedy but I'm studying for finals after that the blog and all blog related things will get my full attention, stuff like my youtube,art,comics,my comic and everything else i've postponed.

so today I picked this song cause I just love it to bits. I was intranced by it and didn't even notice,I was just grooving dropped everything and just listened. When a song can do that to you just make you forget everything and take you somewhere else for those few minutes you know its good.
thats all i can say about this song cause I don't have the knowledge about this band like I do with most ska bands so sit down relaxe and let the buzzcocks take you away for a bit.

(reading this back it sounds like i'm high but I swear i'm not....right now) ;)

covers better then the orignal tuesday: come on eileen- save ferris




I'm a little sad about using this song for today's song of the week because I actually wanted to write a whole post about this blog but I always forgot so I will synopsis the band and what they do, later I'll make something more complete. but now I will talk about just one of this bands song, come on Eileen.

First lets talk a little about the band,save Ferris, who were a huge thing in the late 90's in so cal (southern California: the land of my existence). one of the many ska bands that rose and fell in that time and place in the world. they were one of the many that didn't make it because of various different reasons, like changing the style of music or disbanding to tackle different projects. that's where save Ferris is categorized..

now this song is probably the most known song and also the most mainstream. This also in my opinion is one of the greatest ska cover songs ever (that's something to write about). This song just has a great fun loving energy that the original didn't have to this level. also the added horn section actually complements very well with the speed up tempo, and finally I want to talk about the main singer Monique Powell who puts out all the stops in this song she just puts this song over the top and makes it great, she has what very few musical artist actually have, the ability to sing! best example in this son in particular is the end where she keeps here voice at super level for a real long time with her last "Eileen" she puts all her effort , and i love it.

a very brief history of ska!

This entry is a shout out to my Friend Wallace wells(AKA nick) who thinks that i am the master of ska music. I don't like to brag because that is so not true. But i know enough to give a basic origin of the genre.
Okay lets start with the different types of ska there are. the first generation that was started in Jamaica which was a combo of different styles rocksteady,jazz .this later gave way to reggae cause ska is the grandfather of reggae music
second generation was basically the birth of 2-tone. this was the combination of ska and London punk. that's the reason the most famous ska band of the time where from Europe the specials and madness arguably the most well known.
then third wave which was made popular by operation ivy is known by most as ska punk because it was a combination of hardcore punk and ska. this is the most resent and the most well known having bands that where about fun and acceptance. this is the type of ska I was born into the type I've been singing since I was five and the one with my favorite bands. this genre had bands that include The aquabats, reel big fish, mighty mighty bosstones, save ferris, less then jake, streetlight manifesto, goldfinger etc. most of these bands are still out there rocking out though some like goldfinger, the aquabats have changed their style, though still good it ain't as good as the skanking music from the 1900s.
this style is no longer as popular since its hit its peak somewhere in the 1990s being on TV show like digimon and movies like baseketball. but don't despair because unlike how people like to think ska is not dead I've seen things on the Internet that give me hope and that are pretty creative like ska mixed with old school rap syles. just gotta have patience because no matter what the future holds there will always be room for the underdog of music ska.(that was so cheesy :D)
ps check this out rude boy the original site is http://www.dobi.nu/yourscenesucks/ its good if you want to make fun of your Friends that actually look like that!
pps if anyone wants to correct me they are welcomed to!
